    The TGT at Big Fish is a SIM/TM(?) called You're the Boss, and the Daily Deal is 7 Wonders: Ancient Alien Makeover, a match-3 with varied gameplay and puzzles which I really enjoyed.  The Catch of the Week is The Theatre of Shadows: As You Wish, which I own, but of course haven't played Embarrassed

    The TGT at Big Fish is Greed: The Mad Scientist, an adventure with skippable HOS! OH!  The Daily Deal is Season Match 2, a relaxing and beautiful match-3.  It looks like I forgot to mention the

    The TGT at Big Fish is Lost Civilization, which looks like an IHOG, and the Daily Deal is Twilight City: Love as a Cure, a game which I absolutely loved.  I wrote a review/guide to the game, which you can find HERE.  There is a developer spotlight on Mariaglorum <--(click), with all of their games half off using the code MARIAGLORUM.  It's a TRUE 1/2 off sale, with game club members saving more Happy bounce  Don't forget about Ebates!

    GameHouse is the first to get Jo's Dream: Organic Coffee 2, and iWin has Space Mahjong.

    Steam's Daily Deal is the Anomaly Ultimate Bundle for $10.00, and GamersGate's is Far Cry 3 for $14.98.

    I remember your rave about Twilight City and picked it up as a DD, Genki. Big smile  I demo'd it a long time ago and enjoyed it but for some reason never bought it. Now it's mine! Evil Grin

    The TGT at Big Fish is the Collector's Edition of Myths of the World 2: Stolen Spring, and the Daily Deal is Judge Dee: The City God Case.  Today and tomorrow you can get the CE of Mystery Case Files 9: Shadow Lake, which I just did a review for, for $6.99 using the code SHADOW.

    GameHouse now has the Platinum Edition of Nearwood, and iWin has what I believe is the first ever IHOG by Hoyle, Hoyle Illusions.  It's an exclusive to iWin (at the moment,) so I'm guessing the game is brand new.  It looks interesting based on the description, so here's hoping!

    Steam's Daily Deal is Urban Trial Freestyle for $7.49, and GamersGate's is Anno 2070 for $8.99.

    Happy gaming!

    The TGT at Big Fish is the new one from Blue Tea Games, the Collector's Edition of Cursery: The Crooked Man and the Crooked Cat.  The Daily Deal is Mystery Trackers 4: Four Aces, and there are two specials running this weekend:  The Veteran's Day sale is for $4.99 SE's using the code HEROES, and there's a "secret" sale for $9.99 CE's using the code CLASSIFIED.  As always, don't forget to use Ebates!  I just got a payment from them a few days ago, and used it to buy the Daedalic bundle! Happy bounce

    GameHouse now has the match-3 2 Planets Fire & Ice, and iWin has the Collector's Edition of Questerium: Sinister Trinity. OH!  BF got the SE only!  Wonder what the difference is... Dunno

    Feeling pretty crummy today, hence the late update.  SO!

    The TGT at Big Fish is Treasure of the Caribbean Seas, which is getting slammed pretty hard.  The Daily Deal is Jane's Realty, and the Catch of the Week is Written Legends: Nightmare at Sea.  I personally LOVED this game.  Sadly, at the time that I played it my health was really awful, so no review, but I can say that I highly recommend checking it out!  The Veteran's Day sale is of course still running, and a heartfelt thank you to all of our veterans and service wo/men out there!

    GameHouse has IGT Slots Diamond Galaxy, and you can use the code PARTY20 to get 20% off any game.

    iWin now has Chicken Invaders: Ultimate Omelette - Thanksgiving Edition (what long name it has! Games, Games, Games!  So Many Games! (News) - Page 21 2010112121564)

    Steam's Daily Deal is Fable III for $4.99, and GamersGate's is Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon for $7.48.

    Happy gaming!

    The TGT at Big Fish is Northern Tale 2, and the Daily Deal is the adventure-liteGames, Games, Games!  So Many Games! (News) - Page 21 Empty Journey: The Heart of Gaia.  I played through this one twice back-to-back to get all of the achievements, and the gameplay is good enough that I enjoyed it both times through.  I did a review, which you can find HERE.  BF is doing a Mystery Case Files Spotlight, with all MCF Games 50% off using the code CASEFILES.  That's $6.99 for the CE's if you're a game club member, always nice Sunny

    GameHouse has a game called Tripp's Adventures, which they're calling an adventure game, but which looks like an arcade/platformer to me~ 

    iWin has Fort Defense, and nothing new at Alawar.

    Steam's Daily Deal is Fallout 2: A Post Nuclear Role Playing Game for $9.99, and GamersGate's is I Am Alive for $3.74.  I remember reading about this one when it came out, and thought it looked really interesting.  I don't do games with FPS elements, but I think it would make a great movie.

    Happy gaming! consolegaming

    The TGT at Big Fish is Royal Defense: Ancient Menace.  I'm not making a topic, at the moment, since no one has commented in the threads for the previous games.  Do we have any tower defense fans here?  There is also a soft release of Plagiarii , which Justie has already kindly reviewed Sunny The Daily Deal is Secrets of the Dark 1: Temple of Night, which is a good deal at $2.99, and the MCF deal is still running.

    Nothing new at GH today, but iWin has Northern Tale 2, and Alawar now has Kingdom Tales.  I didn't realize that this was a fantasy (as in fairies, etc.) builder until I saw the screens at Alawar! Yet another game I haven't gotten around to trying yet!

    Steam's Daily Deal is Towns for $5.09, and GamersGate's is Damnation for $2.50.

    Happy gaming!

    A late update for BF -- There's a bundle deal for Cursery: The Crooked Man and the Crooked Cat running.  Buy now and get Enchantia: Wrath of the Phoenix Queen and/or Macabre Mysteries: Curse of the Nightingale for $2.99 each using the code CROOKED.

    I wouldn't have even known about this if not for my BF e-mails... Sweat drop

    The TGT at Big Fish is not Punished Talents, as Blam! Games had expected, but Whispered Secrets 2: Into The Beyond.  The Daily Deal is Snow Globe: Farm World, and you can get the CE of The Agency of Anomalies 3: The Last Performance for $6.99 using the code AGENCY.

    Looks like I missed a few at GameHouse.  They have gotten the Platinum Edition of Questerium: Sinister Trinity, Northern Tale 2, and Solitaire Mystery: Stolen Power, which is an IHOG/Solitaire hybrid.

    iWin is the first to get Mermaid Adventures: The Frozen Time.

    Steam's Daily Deal is not up yet, and GamersGate's is MASTERS OF THE WORLD Geopolitical Simulator 3 (English) for $25.00.

    The GOG flash sales are still going strong, and I recommend checking it out if there are any games you've been coveting!

    Happy gaming!

    The TGT at Big Fish is the Standard Edition of Otherworld 3: Shades Of Fall.  The Daily Deal is Criminal Minds, which daughter dearest -- a fan of the show -- loved, but says is quite short.  Probably a good one to get as a DD!  The Whispered Secrets 2: Into The Beyond bundle deal is now on -- buy today or tomorrow and get the first game in the series, and/or Fairly Twisted Tales: The Price of a Rose for $2.99 each using the code BEYOND

    GameHouse now has Dead Hungry Diner, and in case you missed the announcement, they now have punch cards, with members getting two punches per game (and a free game at 6 punches,) and non-members get 75% off a game at 6 punches.

    iWin now has Tales of Lagoona 2: Peril at Poseidon Park, and Alawar has gotten the Collector's Edition of Call of the Ages.

    Steam's Daily Deal is Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures for $7.49, and GamersGate's is IL-2 Sturmovik Cliffs of Dover for $4.99.

    Just a reminder that the flash sales at GOG are winding down!
